Artist

Benka is a German abstract artist whose work exposes the robotization of our world and questions the consequences of artificial intelligence in contemporary society. Using captchas as a visual symbol, he transforms digital barriers into meditative, layered compositions that blend technology with human gesture.
His work is driven by the tension between human authenticity and digital automation. Layering iconic captcha distortions with expressive marks, his canvases create a visual language that is both familiar and alienating.
Born in 1983 in Abu Dhabi, Benka lives and works in Germany. He is represented by Alzueta Gallery (Barcelona, Madrid, Paris), which presents his work in exhibitions and art fairs across Europe.
